Today's review on MyOldAddiction.com, Sleeping Beauty by #JuliaLeigh starring #EmilyBrowning, "it’s boring and at a certain point one ceases to really care about where it’s all going"

"Anything you could ever want or be you already have and are." - David O. Russell, born August 20, 1958. #DavidORussell

"I have worked with some of the meanest people in the world. You can't do anything to intimidate me." - Amy Adams, born August 20, 1974. #AmyAdams

BEST MUSIC 1935: John Ford's THE INFORMER included a score by a future Hollywood legend, Max Steiner, though at this point the Academy was giving the Oscar for Scoring to the department and not the individual, so it was RKO that received what was first a certificate and later replaced with a statuette. RKO's music team had been nominated the year before for both The Gay Divorcee and The Last Patrol. The many songs nominated for Oscars have entered the canon and even one as far back as 1935 is still very well known: HARRY WARREN wrote a number of tunes that are still in rotation, in this case providing the music for AL DUBIN's superb lyrics on one of my favourite ever movie tunes, "LULLABY OF BROADWAY" from GOLD DIGGERS OF 1935, the best of the many films in a series of delightful excuses for Depression-era audiences to watch dazzling musical numbers surrounding a flimsy plot. Doris Day later made a film devoted entirely to this number, and of course Bette Midler brought it back into style with her terrific cover. Warren also won for "You'll Never Know" from Hello Frisco Hello (1943) and "On The Atchison Topeka and the Santa Fe" from The Harvey Girls (1946), and was nominated for "Remember Me" (Mr Todd Takes the Air, 1937), "Jeepers Creepers" (Going Places, 1938), "Down Argentina Way" (Down Argentine Way, 1940), "Chattanooga Choo Choo" (Sun Valley Serenade, 1941), "I've Got A Gal In Kalamazoo" (Orchestra Wives, 1942), "Zing A Little Zong" (Just for You, 1952), "That's Amore" (The Caddy, 1953), "An Affair To Remember" (An Affair to Remember, 1957). He died in 1981. Dubin, who died in 1945, was also nominated for "Remember Me" (Mr. Dodd Takes the Air, 1937) and "We Mustn't Say Goodbye" (Stage Door Canteen, 1943). For a few years, the Academy also gave out an Oscar for Dance Direction, which this year went to DAVE GOULD for two numbers, "I've Got a Feeling You're Fooling" number from BROADWAY MELODY OF 1936; and "Straw Hat" from FOLIES BERGERE. Gould was also nominated for Swingin' The Jinx from Born To Dance (1936) and All God's Children Got Rhythm" from A Day At The Races. He died in 1969.
